Proud of who we are, what we are and what we have and can
accomplish. It is standing up and being counted, in the halls of
justice, in the voting booth, on the floors of our legislatures most
nnportantly in our homes and workplaces. Pride is no longer
allowing ourselves to be victimized by our own inaction.
By Martha Prentl<i..<J
Lasting change has always oc­curred
because of action within a
system, generally not by force
which is imposed from without
upon a society.
During Pride, especially, it
is our duty to provide positive
role models for those among us
who are still battling within them­selves,
questioning who and what
they are. This duty howe:ver
